Please support an Irish voice in Melbourne




A Chara,

3CR and the Connolly Association are looking for your help to keep the voice of independent radio on the air. 

The annual radiothon takes place on Saturday, 16 June 2012 and this year 3CR is aiming to raise $210,000.

The Connolly’s will go to air at the usual time of 9.30 am to 10.00 am. (12:30am on Saturday in Ireland)

Ring and make your pledge to keep 3CR and the Connolly Association on the air.

The target this year for the Connolly Association show is $3,300. As well as the usual prizes for lucky listeners we’ll be doing cheerios to overseas (for a donation).


Invest in independence make a tax-deductible donation: 
  •  Ring us on Saturday 16 June at 9.30am - Phone 03 9419 8377 to pay by credit card;
  • Go online at www.3cr.org.au;
  • Send a cheque or money order payable to ‘Community Radio Federation Ltd’ PO Box 1277 Collingwood 3066.


3CR is now 36 years old and in times of reality TV, shock jocks and media monopolies, a community voice is hugely important. The Connolly Association is proud to have been with 3CR for nearly all that journey on air and now you can follow us on facebook, stream our show live on computer and send us your thoughts on e-mail to theconnollyassociation@gmail.com 

Yours sincerely

Jim Cusack
